I started out by sponging a piece of Confetti CS with Calypso Coral Ink, varying the intensity for the Ombre look. I die cut this piece and then used the die to trace an outline onto black CS which I cut with scissors. I stamped the flowers with Stazon ink and used brush and the watercolor crayons and the ink pads to watercolor the image. I fussy cut this and mounted it onto the die cut panel. I am at my lake house with limited supplies and did not have anything but a scrap of So Saffron CS, no Calypso Coral CS, no Wisteria Wonder CS, but I did have some DSP in those colors. So I used the DSP and then used a makeup wedge to sponge the edge of a White CS base. I added some punched Wisteria Wonder dots and hearts. All Wisteria Wonder was then painted with Wink of Stella for a bit of shimmer.
Thanks Ibby for coming to play and encouraging me to get out my watercolor tools.

For only having limited supplies the details on this card are fantastic. Impressed how you made the black frame. You have one steady hand. I like your water coloring with the crayons. Soft look.tfs
I'm glad you found a way to add more Wisteria Wonder. Card looks like yours: beautiful coloring and fussy cutting. Layout is cool as well. Fun is stamping at the lake with Chocolates!
